Four Exquisite Midnight IMAX 'The Hobbit' Sketch Posters Unveiled

"Home is now behind you. The world is ahead." Gather round and feast your eyes upon these beauties. Four new character posters have debuted on ComingSoon for Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. These are the IMAX 12:01AM Midnight posters that they're exclusively debuting and giving out at midnight showings of The Hobbit in less than 3 weeks. The design replicates the hand-drawn maps of Middle Earth, with an overlay and character sketch, plus Elvish text everywhere (except IMAX). Gorgeous design, I'd love to get a set of all 4 of these. A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth…

In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit… J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit, being directed by Peter Jackson as three separate movies, is set in Middle-Earth 60 years before Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, which Jackson and his filmmaking team brought to the big screen in a trilogy ten years ago. The films, with screenplays by Fran Walsh, Philippa Boyens, Guillermo del Toro and Peter Jackson, were shot consecutively in digital 3D using the latest cameras. The Hobbit follows the journey of Bilbo Baggins, played by Martin Freeman, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor, which was long ago conquered by the dragon Smaug. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey arrives in theaters in 3D & 48FPS on December 14th.
